14.6 mi estimated · 33.6 mi claimed
The claim is 2.3× the estimate. How this is worked out.
This is the KQi 200F without the folding handlebar, priced $150 lower. NIU's store lists it at $419 against a $649 list price, with the same 365 Wh pack, 350 W motor, 20 mph top speed, tubeless 10-inch tires and 265 lb rider limit as the 200F at $569. Only the fold differs: the 200P's handlebar does not collapse, and at 43.4 lb it is 0.7 lb lighter. The front fork has 32 mm of spring travel, and braking is a front drum with regeneration. NIU claims 33.6 miles; the 200F measured 18.5 in this catalog, so budget half. For a rider who does not need the narrow fold, it takes the 200F's range and speed for $150 less, and at $419 it undercuts the KQi 100F's $449 while adding 122 Wh, 2.6 mph and tubeless tires.
